Hi Dee Dee,
I notice that the bros above seems to have Pirelli Sports Demons on, I like the look of these however the back seems a bit worn ? Hard to see in the picture.
Q: Whats the tyres you've got on your bike and if don't mind where did you get them, how much ?
Cheers in advance

hehe the shamless plug... looks so nice that Hawk with the back end jacked up, used a converted cbr shock for it.. handled like a dream (not a 250N).. what rear shock have you fitted there SS? .. that stubby was the one i was thinking for "project Mk2" but it wasn't road legal noisewise...

Many thanks for comments. (As she's only mocked up, to see where I'm at...)
Black tank; (Once a spray can target.) Badly dented, but useful for mocking up. Red tank; (eBay success.) Badly scratched, no dents, needs rub down & respray. Intended a retro green lane 'look' through using Renthals, aluminium guards etc. but, I had the Revere loom, (& with the Revere bars; I can get her past the car.) She needed some mudguards for images & 'Norfolks' solution suited my pocket. Got an exhaust put away for her final incarnation. (Need two into one manifold.) Slow start; Getting there now, but she evolved from circumstance instead of plan.
It's been worthwhile discovering how much I still need to do before committing. So I'll spend some time on engine & running gear before I make a final decision. But I still lean toward removing subframe & rebuilding her with a Bros rear end.

noakira that Bros is a Hawk in disguise, the tyres came with the bike and were past their best before date so they got junked... then the bike was knicked by some chav in Birmingham..
